It seems surprising to me but I just got an email from DIAC and it is written in that all applications of 475 are being allocated to case officers by 13th Feb 2009 so it is great news for us who are waiting for case officers to be allocated

lets see if any one of you who have lodge application in mid or end of 2008 so let me know so I can get an idea that who is already being allocated and when is my turn ?

Some of the text of email is ......

ASPC APPLICATION ALLOCATION INFORMATION

On 17 December 2008 the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship announced

changes to the way General Skilled Migration applications will be allocated

Under the DIAC changes in processing priorities, state sponsored applications, including the 475, are to processed first, ahead of all others. This date for allocating all lodged state sponsored applications is the one we have been given too. We expect that state sponsored applications lodged in the next month will also be assigned to a case officer as quickly - though time will tell.

Certainly sponsored applications we lodged in October are now being processed.

Our visa application was sent to agent last night -she has done all the form filling so was pretty easy, we just had to confirm the detaisl were correct. Hard copies of documents we need are being sent this week so will get to oz ASAP.
